Check it out and let me know what you guys think. How much do these bastards cost?

Well, it's intercooled for one thing... they're only running it at 8 psi and those blowers really don't hit their peak efficiency until 11-12 psi (unlike Eaton / JR blowers) so if you could build up to handle the extra boost, it would be a seriously hot setup.

Anybody hear about the cost of these babies? I would love to get one, then bullet proof my bottom end of my engine.

What is this crap?
Re: Anybody have any experience with this SC? (SoulflyCRXsi)
the units are much more expensive than the Roots blowers (made bty Eaton) that Jackson uses, since they are a more complicated design with close tolerances.

it's not "pumping juice" because they've got the bugger turning really slow to avoid blowing an otherwise stock engine. Like I said - at 8 psi that thing is barely coming into its efficiency band.

even @ 8psi methinks it should be throwing a lil more out. Would throwing an intercooled turbo kit on the same D16Y8 yield more HP @ 8psi?

Nah, the turbo would be a good bit better. Look at all the ZC guys... 8 PSI yeilds just under 200 ponies for most... I beleive those ponies on the ZC are at the WHEELS, however.
